[QUOTE="Mirtek, post: 8335192, member: 40810"] And we're way beyond that bare minimum and have been for quite some time already. This level will not be upheld forever. Like it or not but many countries are already dropping their anti C19 meassures by a lot. And public preassure is mounting for even more. And a huge lot of people jump on any new freedom immediately and also way too many just take freedoms that are not yet in concordance with local C19 laws anyway as soon as they see the enforcement flagging. Just take a look at the Euro 2020 final tomorrow, both at what you'll see in the arena and what will happen outside and in either Rome or London, depending on the outcome. I am going on a limb here and take the bet that you will not see many masks or disctancing and probably not even the police trying to disolve anything but outright riots. In Germany the pedestrian zones and malls and promenades were filled to the brim during good wheather and as soon as masks were no longer mandatory outside they vanished from 95% of the faces. Despite what earlier surveys about voluntarily wearing masks said. Talk about attitude behaviour gap I guess. And people demand more and more. The voices for a total end of mask requirement even inside are getting more and getting louder. I don't see it survive past September in Germany and that's a late estimate. August as an end for almost all that's still in place is in demand too. And after opening even brothels, it does indeed seem silly to hold onto the rest of it any longer. What if Omicron or Pi or Sigma come along and actually mutated to a degree that the current vaccines are all finally ineffective against it? Do you think people will accept to go back to April 2020 C19-alert-level and just wait until we get an updated vaccine and can start from square 1 all over again with actually getting it into the people? All the pretended solidarity with the poorer countries is already dropping just like the masks are. Germany busily securing thrid doses for all citizens while giving a token donation of way too few doses to countries who aren't even anywhere near getting a first dose for their citizens. And it's not was if the rest of the rich world is looking much better in this [/QUOTE]
